Italo Disco

I have dabbled in Italo disco for years, never fully understanding the breadth of this musical genre. This is a huge body of music from the 80's that is typified by the cheesiest (therefore coolest) sounding drum machines and driving synth lines with outfits at times looking like they came straight out of Buck Rogers. This stuff is totally nuts and...well...pretty awkward at times.....check this one out!

Now that you are all juiced up, here is a link for a totally sweet mix to download and put on your iPoo, mixed by 2 of the great revivalists of this genre...Midnight Moroders! Check out the dope remix of a cover of TOTO's 'Africa' that the mix starts with......make me wanna get down! This mix is killer, get it while you can....don't sleep!
